Bisteccherie popolari a Utica

By far one of the worst experiences I've ever had at this restaurant, we have been coming here for years, and this was just awful. Our waitress forgot to put in the soup we ordered and then brought all our meals separately. We were unaware that you now have to ask for butter w your steak and she didn't inform us of that so we waited another 10 minutes for that, I asked for a separate plate and she forgot that and waited another 10 min for that. By the time I was halfway through my steak, my rock was cold. We were celebrating my husband's 41st b day and asked what the birthday deserts were she said none so we ordered a $13 cheesecake then after she brought the bill said that there were some free deserts for the occasion. Finally, the bill, there was 3 of us at the table and both bills were wrong we waited another 15 min for her to "figure out what was wrong" after we told her and have them corrected. For the $100 price of dinner for my husband and I will be taking out business somewhere else in the future. No wonder the restaurant was almost empty.

One of the best meals we've had in a long time with the best service. Can't wait to go back.

Everything was perfect. Food was hot, everybody loved their appetizers and dinner. Service was outstanding.

When we arrived we were told they could not honor the reservation. It was too busy and open table did not communicate well. Blake was actually a little rude. It’s the holiday and I try to be accepting, but not to paying customers. She never even said she was sorry. I have made reservations before never had an issue. Luckily 2 seats at the bar opened and we dined. Capital Grille at the bar is always good. Bartender is amazing Jason!

Great evening! We had stopped in during the soft opening to test some appetizers and have some wine, and was very happy that now two months later for this visit, that the food, vibe, etc., had remained the same. Emily was our server that first night, and was outstanding, as was Austin from last night. The octopus app is very creative, with the protein cut in pieces, and seared, as opposed to one big tentacle placed on a plate. The grilled cauliflower was a hit. For entrees, the branzino was spot on for taste and presentation, as well as the wagyu coulette, and the pork chop. My recommendation for the pork chop, however, is to REQUIRE that the apple butter spread used for the scallop dish be a permanent resident on the side for future servings. Caramel bread pudding for dessert was a nice, gooey mix. Will definitely return to try the other entrees!
